Hello everybody,
We have just created 3 versions of the Multiport Template, and we found a way to reduce complexity by replacing the macros with "only" Transformers and using the new mode "Copy matching events and apply operation (in reverse order)" in the MIDI Environment.
Learn more about the structure of the Multiport Templates in the VE PRO 5 Manual, page 46 ff.
These are the available templates (also attached as a zip file to this post):
- 1x16 MIDI Ports (256 MIDI Channels, 1 instance of Vienna Ensemble PRO)
- 2x48 MIDI Ports (1536 MIDI Channels, 2 instances of Vienna Ensemble PRO)
- 6x16 MIDI Ports (1536 MIDI Channels, 6 instances of Vienna Ensemble PRO)
Logic´s buffer limit in simple words:
If for whatever reason more than 256 simultaneous MIDI messages are sent from Logic to the Multiport Environment, the buffer will drop MIDI data randomly. With a lot of automation data and a huge template with many instruments playing, this number is easier reached that one might think.
Best,
Paul
